USCIS has changed their policies that all applications to remove conditions on permanent residence must be filed with either VSC or CSC which is going to increase the load for both processing centers. I hope we are all approved quickly before the backlog gets even larger.

Maybe thats why they are "purging" and recruiting CSC's help to get the backlog cleaned up ???

Just a thought.

"you fondle my trigger then you blame my gun"

Timeline: 13 month long journey from filing to visa in hand

If you were lucky and got an approval and reunion with your loved one rather quickly; Please refrain from telling people who waited 6+ months just to get out of a service center to "chill out" or to "stop whining" It's insensitive,and unecessary. Once you walk a mile in their shoes you will understand and be heard.

Thanks!
